Synopsis

Product Description

(LP-sized 4-CD Box Set with 76-page Hardcover Book) Bear Family profiles one of the greatest and most underrated female country singers of all time. Bonnie Owens was the major female artist to emerge from the Bakersfield scene that spawned Merle Haggard, Tommy Collins, Ferlin Husky, Wynn Stewart, and Buck Owens, and later inspired Dwight Yoakam and several generations of honky tonk singers.This 103-track box set features all of Bonnie's recordings between 1953 and 1971, most of them appearing on CD for the very first time, including the original version of A Dear John Letter with Fuzzy Owen, plus all of her duets with Merle Haggard, such as Just Between The Two Of Us, Slowly But Surely and A Stranger In My Arms.

CD Reviews

Bonnie Owens finally gets her due.

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Wow Bear Family really saved the best for last this year. Fantastic set of mostly new-to-cd Bonnie Owens stuff. Bonnie was very underrated and hopefully this will set the record straight on how good she was. A shame she passed away before this was released. Bear Family just keeps doing amazing releases like this one,what would we do without them!?"
